Condolence: Dad, The day is here that I must say my final goodbye, This is the day that I never wanted to come. But I knew in my heart it would be sooner rather than later. I hope you knew just how much I respected you. You were a remarkable, strong, loving and extremely intelligent man. you were someone I always admired. I can only pray that I am half the person you are. You were admired by many. You left a mark on everyone that met you. oh, and your sense of humor will never be forgotten. You were the most amazing grandfather, and great grandfather to my own kids and grandchildren. They could never have asked for anyone better. You and mom had a good life together, and you always loved each other. We will always be here for her. My last conversation with you on your birthday will be in my heart forever. I could go on an on. I love you and will miss you more than one could imagine. I am also grateful you are at peace. Love, your daughter Michelle

Condolence: Dick, we always enjoyed visiting with you at Jeff and Carmen’s. You never forgot our voices no matter how much time went by between our visits. Sadly you lost your sight as a young man but that didn’t stop you from enjoying life and loving everyone around you. You were an amazing man and a pleasure to know. You will be sadly missed by all. Rest in piece Dick, you will be forever in our hearts.

Condolence: Dear Papa,

I pray you can see now all the faces of all who loved you so much. My heart has been with you since the last day you were home. I’m sorry we couldn’t keep you there until the end. It pains my heart to think of the hope in your eyes the day you went to the hospital. I believe you fought until the end to get back home to Gram, and you never complained. Any time we ever empathized with you, you would tell us there are children who are sick and starving, and that what you were going through was nothing compared to that. I respect you so much for that.

I believe your influence helped mold my fiancé into the man is is today. Your wisdom, power of example, and unconditional love were critical to his ability to become the family man he is now. I am forever grateful for that. I feel blessed to have gotten to know you better before you set out on your next journey. I pray your spirit can be at peace and free.

I feel as though if I were to read this to you, you would shut it down and ask how all my family is doing. That’s just who you were. I can hear you say, “Enough about me, how’s Mom? I can also still hear you say “Ok kid.”

And I hope now, you can finally see me smile back.

Thank you for your selfless love and support to our family. You will live forever in our hearts.

Love Erika

Condolence: Dad I am at loss for words for the first time in my life. You weren’t just my father you were my best friend, my teacher and my mentor. You taught me so many things in my life. My words can describe. I am proud to say that I am Richard Duval’s son. Zachary and Matthew will always cherish every moment they spent with you. My wife was proud to call you her father-in-law. I will always remember the 5p plan. I will watch over and take care of Mom. You are forever in our hearts and we will miss you deeply. Till we meet again. Love forever and always Jeff, Carmen, Zachary, and Matthew
